<h1>Applying an autostyle to a Grid/Graph</h1>
<p>An autostyle is a collection of formatting properties. An autostyle 
 can be applied to various control types (text fields, lines, and so on). 
 An autostyle is a quick and easy way to apply consistent formatting to 
 a number of controls. The steps below show you how to apply an autostyle 
 to a Grid/Graph control, and how to assign a default autostyle to all 
 Grid/Graph controls in your document.</p>
<h2>To apply an autostyle to a Grid/Graph control</h2>
<ol type="1" class="whs1">
	
<li class=p><p>Open the document in <span style="font-weight: bold;"><B>Design 
 </B></span>or <span style="font-weight: bold;"><B>Editable Mode</B></span>. </p></li>
	
<li class=p><p>Select a Grid/Graph in the document.</p></li>
	
<li class=p><p>From the <span style="font-weight: bold;"><B>Autostyles</B></span> 
 drop-down list on the Grid toolbar, select an autostyle. The formatting 
 from the autostyle is applied to the selected grid. The Autostyles drop-down 
 is displayed below:</p></li>
</ol>
<p class="whs2">&nbsp;</p>
<p><img src="images/grid_toolbar.gif" x-maintain-ratio="TRUE" width="580px" height="53px" border="0" class="img_whs3"></p>
<h2>Assigning a default autostyle to all Grid/Graph controls in a document</h2>
<p>You can determine a default autostyle for all of the Grid/Graph controls 
 that will be added to the document. Once you select a default autostyle, 
 all Grid/Graphs you insert into the document are formatted according to 
 the default autostyle. </p>
<h2>To assign a default autostyle to all Grid/Graph controls within a document</h2>
<ol type="1" class="whs1">
	
<li class=p><p>Open the document in <span style="font-weight: bold;"><B>Design 
 </B></span>or <span style="font-weight: bold;"><B>Editable Mode</B></span>. </p></li>
	
<li class=p><p>From the <span style="font-weight: bold;"><B>Tools</B></span> 
 menu, select <span style="font-weight: bold;"><B>Document Properties</B></span>. 
 The Properties and Formatting dialog box opens. </p></li>
	
<li class=p><p>From the left, select <span style="font-weight: bold;"><B>Other</B></span>. 
 </p></li>
	
<li class=p><p>Select an autostyle from the <span style="font-weight: bold;"><B>Default 
 Grid Autostyle</B></span> drop-down list. </p></li>
	
<li class=p><p>Click <span style="font-weight: bold;"><B>OK</B></span> to 
 apply the changes.</p></li>
